Eli & SJ, Nov 2021

I don’t understand how this place has “good” rating. We stayed three nights and overall it was a very poor experience. The good: The beds were clean and it included a one-way pick up from the ferry terminal to the hotel. The bad: Before we even checked, I contacted the hotel bu both email and phone (left a message) because I had some questions. No one contacted me back. I should have take. This as a sign. When we checked in the person at the front desk barely spoke. We never saw someone at the front desk for the rest of our three night stay. We needed to use the phone at front desk to call. The two times I used the phone, the person who answered was extremely rude. At one point, the bathroom door was locked and we could not get in. I called to see if some one could come and unlock it. When they finally came after the two calls and 5 hours, we were explained (and told it was our fault) that it was an outdoor style lock and they did not have the key so the lock would need to be removed. We stayed here, hoping to have housekeeping. We were told that due to LA county restrictions, they were not allowed. Which is not true, that restriction was lifted nearly 6 months ago and housekeeping is allowed as long as guests are not in the room. The kitchen was very limited (there was an incomplete set plates and pans but no wine opener, grater, measuring cups, etc to cook). All the doors including the glass sliding doors, all opened to common spaces. There was MOLD in the bathroom. Worst of all, other than the beds being clean, it was dirty and falling apart. Half the light switches did not work. The heating did not work. It smelled. Paint was bubbling from the walls. Bottom line: unclean, rude staff, don’t stay!

Pros. Very comfortable stay. Great bed. Full kitchen. Staff was very helpful. Quiet, we didn't hear any other guests. The room was Clean. All in all a great hotel. Free ride from boat by cab.

Cons. Shower only, no tub. It's a bit of a hike up the hill from town, but you get used to it.
